President Obama is back from Europe and Ghana, with health care and the economy continuing to dominate his agenda. Organized labor leaders come to the White House today to talk about those topics, as well, even pushing a second stimulus. (Perhaps “shovel ready” really meant digging a deeper hole.)

The House convenes at 12:30 p.m. today, for business at 2 p.m., and dispenses with suspensions before moving later in the week to the energy and water appropriations bill as well as H.R. 3170, the Financial Services and General Government Appropriations Act. For more, see the House Majority Leader’s weekly floor schedule.

The Senate convenes at 11:30 a.m. and considers S.1390, the FY2010 Defense Authorization. At 4:30 p.m. today the Senate will debate the confirmation of Robert M. Groves to be Director of the Census.

Economic Reports: Fox News summarizes: “The Producer Price Index, out Tuesday, is expected to climb 0.8%, compared with 0.2% in May, and the Consumer Price Index, out Wednesday, is seen up 0.6%, compared with 0.1% last month. The government also reports on June retail sales Tuesday and industrial production Wednesday. A government report Friday is expected to show lower housing starts in June but an increase in building permits. The National Association of Home Builders issues its July housing market index Thursday.” More from AP.

UPDATE (10 a.m.): President Obama is in Warren, Michigan, talking about the economy Tuesday and then throwing out the first pitch at the MLB All-Star game. On Thursday, he campaigns for Gov. Jon Corzine in New Jersey. (Details.)
